Just wondering if anyone has any advice/insight on tyres, particularly the new Michelin PS4S?

Car (997.1 GT3) came with N-spec Pirellis which could do with being changed in the next few months. Reading reviews online, the new Michelins seem to be good in all weather conditions. So my thinking is they'd be better during the winter but would be good to hear from anyone that has changed to these tyres.

I have had Michelin Pilot Super Sport (MP4S father) for around 4 years on and 25k miles on 7.2 GT3. They are more sure footed in wet weather and plenty grippy enough on public roads. Not taken the car on track much.

Also quite long lasting.

Great all round tyre.
Great to hear. Seems to be in line with what reviews say... looking to do more track days next year and in the back of my mind think a separate wheel/tyre combo may be the way to go. But for winter use the thought of improved wet weather performance is appealing. Current Pirellis haven't been hugely inspiring during recent downpours!
